Forced Feeding

The inmates of the Guantanamo Prison Facility in Cuba have never received due process. The entire situation is an indelible stain on America which can never be made to go away. It has been documented that many of the inmates are there because they were unjustly accused by Afghanis who wanted revenge or to seize their property and saw the opportunity. It's Ramadan and the prisoners who are on a hunger strike because of the seemingly never ending kafkaesque reality they are living are being force fed against their will. Force feeding only assuages the guilt of the oppressors. In reality, it is an even bigger torture than the one the prisoners are trying to escape from.
